Our conception of the reality around us is a continuous act of layering
moments of experience. Yet, the sense of the moment is a fluid
concept. What we see as real is only defined by our belief structure.
Have we ever wondered, what if time can arbitrarily weave together
one to another, what will it change our perception of the moment? To
create this project, images are blindly overlapping in-camera by
rewinding the film after exposed. Through an entangled web of
intended actions and unintended instances, the act of photography
has transformed into a theatrical encounter, playing in the present and
using the moment. It is also a silent conversation riff off between two
realities, probing the other sides of probability and provoking the
visual senses.
